Methyl acetate (MA) was examined as a solvent for use in non-aqueous secondary lithium batteries. The efficiency of cycling lithium on nickel in MA/l M LiClO, containing less than 10 ppm H,O was less than 10%. Addition of nitromethane (NM), SO, or small amounts of H,O improved the efficiency markedl

-The cycling behavior of the Li electrode in LiAsF, and LiClO,/methyl acetate electrolytes has been investigated. Coulometric cycling results, both with and without the additive SO1, show that the highest efficiencies (>9@!J are obtained using 1.0 M LiAsFJMA as the electrolyte. Among the substrates tested Ni z=-Cu S-Al. Current density has little effect in the range l-lOOmA/cm'. Stripping at low cds (0.5mA/cm') gives lower Li recovery. Charge retention data for the Li electrode over 26 days indicate that the LiAsF,/MA electrolyte is superior to any other reported so far. The major problem encountered with the Li electrode during cycling in LiAsF&4A was the extremely limited cycle life. For 0.8 C/cm2 deposits, only about 12 cycles could be obtained before the efficiency fell from over 93% to below WA. A discussion of the related problems of limited cycle life and dendrite formation is presented.

The electrochemical behavior of the interface between lithium (Li) alloy electrodes containing a small amount of metal [aluminum (Al) or tin (Sn)] and a propylene carbonate (PC)-based electrolyte has been investigated. The contents of Al and Sn were below 3.0 wt.%. AC impedance analysis revealed tha
The electrochemical behaviour of cycled lead electrodes has been investigated in HCI soiutions iu the temperature range -6" to 30Β°C. Because of the low ionic strength of solution below -0.8 M, and the associated ir drop problem, solutions stronger than 1.0 M were principally considered. In weaker so
The conformation of 1,6-anhydrolactoase (1) has been investigated by n.m.r. spectroscopy and molecular mechanics calculations. For a solution in D2O, the 1,6-anhydroglucopyranoid ring has a 1C4 conformation, whereas there is a approximately 1:1 equilibrium between the 1C4 and the BO,3 conformations
